Hi.
If you're reading this and wondering why it says "Part 2" in the title, it means you have to scroll down to read "Part 1" before reading this.
This way, you can avoid confusion and i don't have to write about the last part all over again.
So, now that that's done, where was I?
Oh yeah.
14th December 2008
Today we checked out of the hotel.
We were heading for Cik Cha's house for lunch and Dad wanted to exchange cars for the trip to Penang.
So, we got our stuff, I had to repack and rearrange the dirty clothes into one bag and the clean clothes into another.
Hard work, but I guess I don't mind.
We had our lunch at the cafe downstairs at the lobby.
I had Mee Goreng Mamak and Hot Tea.
Here's a pretty nice picture from that place.
After resting and all, we went on our way to Penang in the Rexton.
Acul helped me transfer the stuff and arrange them in the trunk of the Rexton.
On the way to Penang, we stopped at Pelita Nasi Knadar for dinner.
I think it was somewhere around 11 at that time and we were really hungry.
There won't be any pictures from there because Dad said that we would have to pay more if we looked like we were RICH.
So he didn't take out his D60 and the pictures from my camera aren't good.
In fact, they SUCK.
I want that D60.
I WANT it.
Then, after another hour or so in the car, we finally arrived at Gurney Hotel, one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at.
Gurney Hotel = AWESOMENESS
You see, last year, around this time of year, the whole family from my Mom's side went to Penang for a family vacation.
Almost everybody was there.
This year was kind of low key, I don't know why though.
Heh.
15th December 2008
We all woke up kind of early that day.
We went down to breakfast at the first floor, above the ground floor.
And after that, we had this sort of photoshoot outside the hotel.
There were a lot of pictures but not all of them turned out great and I looked really silly in some of them.
Here's the best pick:
I really, really like this one. FYI, I took the picture.
Then Mom told us that we were going to Achik's house for lunch and afterwards we were going to go to either Queensbay Mall or Gurney Plaza.
We were going to get to meet Azri; one of the most AWESOME cousins I have.
Heh.
Before that we stayed in the room for a while.
Mom told me to take some istures of the view from the room.
We were at the 19th floor so there had to be some view, right?
Those were the only decent pictures I took of tthe view.
Then Nana and I camwhored!
ALL the shoes brought to Penang. Well, there were 4 more pairs of work shoes but they're pretty much irrelevant.
Azri was awaiting for us when we arrived at Achik's house.
He had to show us the parking space Achik had given us.
Then we went upstairs and played GTA: San Andreas.
Azri and Zahid had already taken down cheats off the internet so we played like crazy.
Drove tanks around town, flying jets and helicopters and stuff.
Zahid even did something very DISGUSTING.
Hahaha.
Anyway, I didn't eat lunch since I already had a very heavy breakfast.
I even had to hang the clothes like I always do at home.
What, even in Penang?!
Yeah, that's me, the hanging guy.
Some time in the afternoon we decided to go to Queensbay Mall.
It's this huge mall located near ... Queensbay, I think.
I saw Shahrul there, too.
He's my tuition classmate.
Fancy meeting him there
I bought perfume from Adidas, Nana finally got herself a bag and I don't know what else we bought.
We went Subaidah, yeah, Subaidah, like the one in Malacca, for dinner.
It was ok, I guess.
Azri and Zahid followed us back to the hotel to stay for the next three days or so.
I turned in kind of early that night.
I didn't feel really cheery or anything that night.
I still don't really know why.
16th December 2008
I don't remember if we did or did not go swimming today.
I really don't remember.
I think we did.
Cik Zul brought us lunch that day, so that means we did go swimming!
Hahaha.
Nothing much happened during the day and at night, we went to eat at ... Subaidah; AGAIN.
But this was a different Subaidah than yesterday's.
I think Aboy arrived some time that day.
Man, I forgot!!!
Azri looked like a real PSYCHO, wearing his cap covering his eyes, his round, sinister eyes.
SERIOUSLY.
Aboy had a great time camwhoring throughout the whole time.
There weren't any interesting pictures to show you but here's some:
I did some drawing when we got back to the hotel.
And before we slept, Nana, Azri, Farhan and I played this word game where a person says an abbreviation of words and the others have to expand them.
It's kind of hard to explain but playing it is very, very easy.
17th December 2008
We did more swimming today.
Achik brought us lunch, rice, fish and egg.
And we had dinner at Gurney Plaza.
The 'young people' consisting of Aboy (not so young), Nana, Azri, Zahid, Farhan, Fariq and I WALKED there.
Took some pictures on the way there too but not with the D60.
I don't know why this day seems awfully short but I assure, a lot happened.
Or maybe, a little happened, but happened for a very long time.
Huh.
Maybe.
All the 'young people' went to the arcade.
First we played Daytona USA.
Then, Nana and I played The House of the Dead 4.
It was super SCARY.
We even had this guy and his family watch us in AMAZEMENT.
We only got to Chapter 2 before I we died.
We were supposed to watch The Day the Earth Stood Still last night, but Aboy bought the wrong tickets so we had to watch it tonight.
It started at 12.30 am.
It was good.
I really liked it because of the message it had to send to the viewers where we humans have to change our way of living because all that we do nowadays is pollute the Earth and all.
Keanu Reeves looked really cool in the suit.
Hahaha.
We played the word game again.
This time, Aboy joined.
Suddenly, when we were playing, I think it was Nana's turn when she fell asleep, and there was this weird silent moment, then everyone fell asleep, too.
18th December 2008
More swimming.
We walked to Khaleel for lunch.
I think mamak restaurants are rip offs.
Lunch that day was a total of RM71.40.
Pretty shitty stuff if you ask me.
I didn't go to dinner that night.
I don't know.
I just didn't want to pig out and stuff so I decided to stay at the hotel room alone.
The guys came bak at 2 because there was this awful traffic jam and all.
Heh.
I spent the whole night online.
Surfing the internet anywhere I could.
Aboy also went back to KL that night.
He had something to do for the next three days so he said that he wanted to go home early.
19th December 2008
MORE SWIMMING.
That's all I can remember for the day entertainment.
Then we went to Padang Kota for dinner.
It's a real 'neck for neck' kind of food court place.
If you sit at one table, and someguys come to you for orders, then you can only order your food from the guys that come to you.
And, if you're sitting near to one foodstall, then you can only order from that foodstall, even if the foodstall you usually order your food from is right across the area.
I mean, it's easier to say that the place is divided into quadrants.
People from the first quadrant can't order from the stalls in the other quadrants.
Something like that.
The food there wasn't at all satisfying except for the pasembur.
The pasembur there is THE BEST.
I don't know why, but the D60 wasn't there.
After dinner, we took a stroll down breezy seaside.
There are some pictures from there but Dad hasn't transfered them into Mom's pendrive so I don't have them.
I'll try to get them and upload them as soon as I feel like I want to.
Azri and Zahid went home that night.
20th December 2008
Today we were packing up and heading for home.
But not necessarily straight to Johor.
We had to stop at KL because Dad had some work the next day at Putrajaya.
We checked out sometime around 10.30 am and Dad dropped us off at Achik's house where we stayed there until 2.30 pm.
Then we went to BJ Mall or whatever it's called to play some bowling!
But then Dad called and said that we didn't have time and all but w still did get to play.
Farhan won overall with 60 something points.
Zahid came in second, Nana and Azri beat me and i came in fourth.
Aiman did really great, even for his age.
He's 7 this year, I think.
We ate at some place next to a cemetery.
Mee Pitchay is really, really GREAT.
If you're anywhere in Penang, you have to try it.
Aiman was elected the Chief of the Cool table but I don't know for how long his reign will be.
Then we set off for KL where I listened to Fariq's PSP all trip long.
When we got there, we ate at some restaurant where they put on The Blues Brothers.
It's a really good movie.
Then we met up with Arin, Mak, Tok Min, Cik Apis and Cik Along at Cik Cha's house.
They arrived there the day before and they were just on their way to Cik Pais' house to stay there for the night.
Arin didn't though.
He wanted to hang out with us so he stayed.
We watched The Rocker before going to bed that night.
21st December 2008
I really HATED today.
I had to part with the best cousin EVER, namely Nana.
She was stuck with us through the whole trip up and down the country since the start of the school holidays.
She's always been the one to make normal moments seem a lot more fun and awesome.
I can't imagine anyone in this world would have a cousin like her, except for all my other cousins of course.
I hugged and said my goodbyes before getting into the car returning to Johor.
I kind of cried when I listened to I Caught Myself by Paramore becasue that song was the theme song for our vacation and listening to it and realising that Nana wasn't there with us, I really felt sad.
I really miss her and all my other cousins.
I don't know why though, because I see almost every week.
But this time, it was different.
We were very close throughtout the holidays and parting with her was almost unbearable.
Heh.
To be honest, I really think that I'd rather spend my time with my cousins rather than I'd spend it with my friends.
I know for a fact that I have the BEST cousins a person could ever have.
And we will always be the Cool Cousins.
So that concludes the trip from Johor to KL to Malacca to Kl to Penang to KL to Johor.
I really like travelling, especially with my cousins and family.
I had a really great time throughtout the whole trip and I can't wait for next year's.
However, the holidays aren't over yet and there's still a lot more that I can do during these last days of holidays.
So, I'll stop thinking of next year, and continue relaxing this year.
This way, you can avoid confusion and i don't have to write about the last part all over again.
So, now that that's done, where was I?
Oh yeah.

Oh, and after we got back from swimming, the Cool Cousins (Nana, Azri, Farhan and I) showered TOGETHER!
It was really fun and the shower fit us all, thankfully.Nothing much happened during the day and at night, we went to eat at ... Subaidah; AGAIN.
But this was a different Subaidah than yesterday's.
I think Aboy arrived some time that day.
